Thiamine deficiency disease (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beriberi

(Other definitions for beriberi that I've seen before include "Asian disease affecting the nerves and limbs" , "Disease (lack of vit. B1)" , "Asian disease due to vitamin B1 deficiency" , "illness" , "Asian disease caused by a dietary deficiency" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and The Times.
